I came across a few interesting stats on cheating in marriages and thought I would pass them along for discussion and responses.

The top cheating occurrence was Business trips.
The percentage of affairs that begin at work: 60%
Up to 60% of all spouses will take part in some form of infidelity at least once during their marriage.
56% of men who have affairs claim to be happy in their marriages.
Women and men cheat at the same rate within a marriage, although the reasons why women cheat are very different from the reasons that men cheat.

Interesting choice of words, "34% of women who had affairs claimed to be happy or very happy in their marriages." (Same for the male sentence.)

"Claimed" introduces doubt. Why wouldn't we believe people when they tell us about their lives?

I suspect women cheat a lot more often than people realize. Everybody assumes it’s always a man.
